Nitish Kumar: Bihar Assembly floor test
Nitish Kumar once again has changed his coalition partner and took oath for the record 9th time as Bihar Chief Minister. Parting his way with RJD or Mahagathbandan will have repercussions for the INDIA alliance. But as of now, Nitish Kumar’s new coalition government won the trust motion in assembly. Afterwards, Speaker Awadh Bihari Chaudhary, RJD leader, removed from his position of speaker of Bihar Assembly. Resolution was supported by 125 members and opposed by 112 members.
Jitan Ram Manjhi, former Bihar Chief Minister, is also part of NDA coalition. This move will try to garner scheduled castes votes. In this entire political drama, Congress ,wary of horse trading, shifted its 9 MLAs from Bihar to Telangana.
